20 March 1880 — Constantinople | |
Saturday. 20th [March 1880]. The messenger arrived from Marseilles & Hatzfeldt returned to his post. I had a painting less. Mrs Walker brought a little girl as a model & I made a sketch for a picture of a Circassian slave. It snowed hard & there was no getting out so I walked in the corridor with Henry & then cut out refugee clothes with Emily till 5. Had visits from Ct Dubsky & M. Onan, the latter very excited about the trial of Col. Kummerau’s murderer. He says he fears the Turks are going to prove him “a lunatic” & if they do & he gets off it will be an infamie &c &c. Sir Alfred Sandison & Mr Oliphant dined– Dominos in eveng. | |
